Rebirth Just Before The 10th Circle

All of that oddity was resolved by the fact that he was a god.

“Then why is such a guy doing that in the real world?”

“In the first place… I can’t tell you, but Merlin, you have glimpsed the status of the 10th Circle, so this must also have something to do with you.”

“What else does that mean?”

“Where should I start talking? Hmm···."

The World Tree frowned as if in pain.

Actually, her head was very complicated.

Because there were so many stories to tell.

In the end, she continued the story step by step from the beginning.

Her story began from the beginning.

She said, “When creation is caused by an unknown mystery, the mystery is not the only creation of this realm in which we are. The three dimensions of the world we live in were also created at the same time. Actually... the real world was created last. Another dimension was a test piece to create a real world. So the three outer dimensions were very unstable.”

Merlin stared at the World Tree with an intriguing face in the mystery of creation that had begun unexpectedly.

“After that, life blossomed in the four dimensions of the real world, the heavenly world, the demon realm, and the extraterrestrial world, and higher life forms appeared in them. He was what we call God. God of the real world, the god of the heavens, the god of the demon world, the god of the outer world. The gods were born for each dimension and character.”

And that's where the problem arose.

“As time passed, the outer dimensions had to fall into anxieties about when a dimensional rift might occur. That anxiety only grew stronger as time went on.”

Merlin understood.

She thought it could be enough.

How many beings can remain calm in the crisis of their immediate disappearance?

“In the end, the three impatient gods of the outer dimension brought a compromise to the gods of the real world. to allow them to relocate. But... the gods of the real world rejected it.”

“Why?”

“Because the gods and natives of each dimension that were born earlier were so strong, I thought that the existence of the real world, which has just entered a stable state, would be threatened.

“·················ogue.”

“It was the opinion of the gods at the time that if we accepted them, the world would be a waste. Of course, there were gods who thought everyone could live in harmony, but most of them were skeptical of migration and actually refused.”

“So what happened?”

“How is it? naturally···."

Just as the World Tree was about to speak.

There was an intermittent voice.

- A war broke out.

It was a thick male voice.

Moreover, the place where the voice came from was none other than Merlin's arms.

Merlin's complexion hardened at the familiar voice, and Ciri immediately appeared from his arms.

Seeing Siri wrapped in light gold, the World Tree was astonished.

“Are you… Kainos?”

-Long time no see, Witzel.

The two seem to know each other.

Then Merlin's voice interrupted.

"You?"

- So, did you find the answer?

“It was you, too.”

It was certain.

is the author

It was the author who brought him back to the past.

Said Kainos, who took the form of her Ciri to Merlin, who was staring at him.

- No formal greetings. It's called Kinos.

“Are you… new too?”

- It was a god. At one time, he was called the ‘god of time passed’.

Seeing the two of them having a conversation, the World Tree murmured as if he could not believe it.

"It was true... that the spirit of God dwelled in you..."

"How many times have I told you I'm real?"

Merlin grumbled as he saw the World Tree that was only now recognizing.

Then Kainos asked the World Tree.

- Can I explain from here on?

“Well… there is no one who can properly explain the situation at that time like you.”

The World Tree's permission fell, and Kainos looked at Merlin and opened his mouth.

-The Dimensional War began when three other extradimensional forces united and invaded the real world.

“Three dimensions at the same time?”

-The power of a single dimension cannot swallow the real world, so they entered into an agreement and invaded the real world. To swallow the real world and share it amongst themselves.

“If you listened to the situation, would it have been a war that was overwhelmingly unfavorable to the real world? But seeing that the real world remains like this, the war must have been a victory for the real world.”

-Well? Can this really be called a victory in the real world?

"···Huh?"

-Well, if I had to ask, it could be said that this is the world's decision victory.

“What do you mean, that?”

- Among the three dimensions that fought with the real world, the heavenly world was destroyed, and the demon world accepted defeat by signing a non-aggression pact after losing the demon. And the alien god... ran away.

Merlin admired Kainos' story.

When I heard the story, it was an overwhelming victory in the real world.

However, those thoughts were changed by the words of Kainos that followed.

-In order to win such a decision... all the gods in the real world have disappeared.

"Live···? Aren't you dead?"(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

- You got the context. okay. has disappeared. not dead

“…what happened?”

Kainos smiled bitterly at Merlin's question.

-In the beginning, the gods of the real world knew. that the war was overwhelmingly against them. And I made it to overturn such a war situation... Almighty weapon.

"surely···."

-Yeah, you're right. The truth is....

A torrent surged inside Merlin.

The next words of Kainos continued.

- It is a weapon of war made by grinding the gods.

Merlin's pupils shook at Kainos' soft voice.

truth(2)

truth(2)

It was shocking.

The truth embraced by the truth that he has pursued all his life.

The moment he heard that it was completely different from what he had been seeking... Merlin's mind was bound to be confused.

But Merlin soon calmly organized his thoughts.

After much deliberation, he posed a fundamental question.

“Then… what is magic?”

I have lived my whole life thinking that magic is the science that pursues the truth.

So I had no choice but to question it.

If the ultimate goal of magic is the weapon created by the gods, then what is magic?

In response to Merlin's question, Kainos asked again in a calm voice.

-Have you ever thought about the origin of magic?

“...not at all.”

-Then what does the 10th circle of the ultimate magic mean?

“Isn’t the 9th circle followed by the 10th?”

-How the hell did you get to Circle 10 with that kind of thinking?

Kainos clicked his tongue.

Merlin's annoyance soared as the man with Ciri's face looked into his cold eyes.

“Stop scratching your temper and explaining.”

-If you want an explanation, answer it. What do you think is the origin of magic?

"Well? It's like the last dragon made and delivered..."

- That's right.

"What···?"

- What you said is correct.

Merlin asked, stuttering.

“Is that… real?”

-okay.

“········································································?!”

How the hell am I supposed to be surprised today?

Even if you look back on your life's memories, there is probably no other day that surprises you in a row as much as today.

-The Last Dragon, the Last Dragon Lord Hersia. What she brought to the human world is magic.

“For what reason?”

-In the war against the outer dimension, the gods created an omnipotent weapon called ‘truth’ with their own bodies. All the gods in the real world were willing to sacrifice all of them, except for one god who would protect the truth. The truth that was thus born was absurdly strong. Enough to turn the tide of the war at once.

"By the way?"

- Then, of course, shouldn't there be someone who can manage such weapons? The gods handed over control of the truth to the being who assumed the role, called the controller. That was Hersia.

“·················ogue.”

-And it was magic that Hercia created to better control her truth, and she ended the war with her magic and truth.

Merlin was at a loss for words.

Because she never thought that there would be such a secret in her magic that she had learned her whole life.

- After the war ended, Hersia also had a problem. The only dragon who survived the long war with the aliens was herself, and her lifespan was not infinite. If one day her lifespan expires or if there is a problem with her life, the controller who can activate her truth will disappear. Even though the other two dimensions were the same, the alien god who escaped without acknowledging defeat was also a problem.

“·················ogue.”

-Because Hersia wanted a successor to take over her own and put her truth into operation.

“To create that successor… you put magic into the world? Is Circle 10 the minimum requirement to become a controller?”

- I understand correctly.

“Ha...”

Merlin smirked as if exasperated.

The more she knew something, the more frustrated she felt.

‘For what the hell did I dig so deeply into magic?’

Was it just to become a soldier to be used in war?

If she reached circle 10 and became the controller of truth....

What was she doing herself by now.

A being who is only looking at the truth in preparation for a war that will never break out?

Thinking about it that way, I was filled with emptiness.

'If this happens, Mars's son will be my benefactor... huh?'

At that moment, a thought flashed through her mind, and Merlin asked a question.

"awhile. Did I mention that they all disappeared, leaving only one god to protect the truth?”

-It did.

“Is that one god Mars?”

-okay.

“Then… why did he who should protect the truth attack the truth, and why is he in the real world now?”

-Mars... Although he was stupid and quick-tempered, he wasn't a person who forgot his mission.

“···········?”

-But even that Mars has changed. In front of love...

"What?"

Merlin stared blankly at Kainos at the sound of love out of nowhere.

-Hercia, the controller of truth, Mars, the guardian of the truth. Wouldn't it be strange to not have a passion for being attached for thousands of years?

“What kind of love story in this situation?”

- It's not like a love story. Because the deity of being perfect has changed because of the love you speak of. Mars and Hersia, who had been dependent on each other, developed into lovers, and about 10,000 years ago, that incident happened.

“The incident?”

-Hercia, who was chasing after realizing that the surviving alien god had appeared in the real world, was murdered.

“········································································?!”

- Well... don't correct it. It's not killing, it's annihilation. At the moment of his death, the last dragon, Hersia, opted for annihilation with an extradimensional god, that day truth lost control, and Mars . .

“Huh…”

-And Mars who lost his lover went crazy. After losing the only person in the world who could empathize with him, he dreamed of the resurrection of Hersia. Not simply reviving a corpse, but the perfect revival of Hersia... It was the truth that held the method.

“What the heck is the truth?”

-Truth is an omnipotent instrument with an ego before it is a weapon. If you use that omnipotence properly, you can even bring a dead dragon back to life. I can't explain the details...

“·················ogue.”

-Anyway, that's why Mars persuaded the truth for thousands of years. He asks you to accept him as a controller ... but the truth rejects it ... then you appeared. You have the potential to become the new controller.

“You crazy!”

A swear word escaped Merlin's mouth.

“So, let’s get things sorted out… That love-crazed god made me this way?”

-okay. Mars, who needs the truth to revive Hersia, doesn't need a new controller.

“Could you have told me, as the controller, to spare Hersia?”

- A singularity occurred in the process of Hersia co-existing with an alien god. Their fates are bound together. If Hersia is resurrected... the alien god will also be resurrected. As a controller, if you know this... will you resurrect Hersia?

“Are you crazy? Of course I won't.”

- Mars probably didn't know that. For the sake of reviving Hersia and for the sake of the revived Hersia, the position of the controller will have to be occupied by herself. Well, the situation after that... you will know from my memory. Mars, irritable by your appearance, attacked the truth and was expelled. In the process, his deity was even damaged.

“Mommy...”

Merlin made a groaning sound.

Only then did he realize.

Why did Mars create a denomination and oppress the wizards?

‘Because we have to beat the wizards so that there will be no new controllers.’
